if it is true that john boehner is asking president obama to get him to comply, where does this go, or does this end up just as a conversation time and again for days if not weeks or months to come? >> well you're right. speaker boehner did push president obama this week to tell his attorney general to start complying and getting to the bottom of fast and furious. this investigation has been going on for more and year now, we deserve answers, and president obama as the commander-in-chief has a responsibility to tell his attorney general, congress has the authority to subpoena you, and you have to comply with that. this is an issue of president obama's own white house staffers on the national security team being contacted about fast and furious. this doesn't just stay within doj much. so if president obama is not willing to hold his attorney general accountable congress has to proceed with contempt charges or a civil suit against the attorney general. bill: we asked a lot of people about what they think eric holder is trying to cover up. what is your theory? >> if you look at all the ev
